第二部分:阅读理解
A
While Google, Bing and Yahoo dominate (居……之首) adult search engine choices, they are not
always the best choice for students. The sites on this list are good search engines that students can rely on.
Fact Monster
Homework help is always on hand with Fact Monster (www. factmonster. com). It is mainly fit for
students aged from 7 to 12. There are also all kinds of games, spelling tests and more for kids to improve
their study and have some fun.
Ask Kids
Ask Kids (www. askkids.com) is a great site for students to safely find the information they need
from the web. Besides being a useful and safe search engine, Ask Kids also has a useful picture and
video search function that allows students to find pictures or videos that may be useful to their
information search.
SortFix
SortFix (www. sortfix.com) is one of the useful search engines for students because it provides
relevant, organized search results. It does this by analyzing the keywords in the search results, and
giving the searcher the ability to focus on, or remove, certain keywords. It is a useful search engine if
you are not sure what information you want to find, or if you are tired of finding irrelevant results in
your searches.
Wolfram Alpha
Created by Stephen Wolfram, Wolfram Alpha (www. wolframalpha. com) can calculate things that
it would take a hundred or more individual websites to do. It uses a set of ways to answer questions
directly that you type into the search box, which is different from other websites. You can find
everything from the nutritional value of an apple to the real-time position of the International Space
Station. An Apple app is offered so that you can add it to any iPod Touch devices. It is best suited for
older students.
21. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To recommend four useful apps.
B. To advertise four interesting websites.
C. To list the top four popular websites in the US.
D. To introduce four student-friendly search engines.
22. If you keep getting the results you don’t want, which will you probably use?
A. Fact Monster. B. Ask Kids. C. SortFix. D. Wolfram Alpha.
23. What’s special about Wolfram Alpha?
A. It offers answers directly. B. It provides games for kids.
C. It focuses on solving maths problems. D. It is intended for astronomy enthusiasts.
B
The gender gap in maths-related subjects is obvious. In almost all countries, far fewer women than
men choose STEM(理工科) careers.
It's not that girls and women are bad at maths. In the UK in 20l9, for example, 39% of 18-year-old
girls who studied maths at A-level achieved an A or A* ,compared to 42% of boys. For A-level physics,
29% of girls achieved the top two grades, compared to 28% of boys. But in both subjects, boys heavily
outnumbered girls—by more than 3 : l in the case of physics. So why are so many girls turning their
backs on these subjects?
A study published recently in the journal PNAS suggests that the answer may in fact lie in
male-female differences in academic ability, but the ability in question is reading, not maths. Thomas
Breda, at Paris School of Economics, and Clotilde Napp, at Paris Dauphine University, wondered
whether this male-female difference in reading could help explain the gender gap in STEM careers.
Every three years, hundreds of thousands of 15-year-olds in more than 60 countries take part in the PISA
study. Students complete tests in maths, reading and science, and answer questions about their future
career intentions. When Breda and Napp looked at the data from PISA 20l2 , they realised they were on
to something.
"There were small gender gaps in maths performance at l5 years old, but these gaps were too small
to explain the huge gender segregation( 隔离) in STEM," says Breda. But for reading, the tables were
turned; the girls were much better than the boys. As a result, when a boy and a girl had similar scores in
maths,the girl usually had an even better score in reading.
When Breda and Napp compared each student's scores in reading and maths, they found the greater
a student's advantage in reading, the less likely they were to plan a career in maths, even when their
maths score was also high. Notably, this was true for both boys and girls.
"It makes a lot of sense," says Sarah Cattan, of the Institute for Fiscal Studies. "It shows that what
matters most when boys and girls choose their field of study is not how good they are in maths or in
reading, but how good they are in maths relative to reading."
24. What do the data in Paragraph 2 show?
A. The average gender difference in maths performance is small.
B. Those who are good at maths are also good at physics.
C. Physics tends to be easier for girls than maths.
D. Girls are not better than boys at maths.
25. According to Breda and Napp, who is most likely to plan a career in maths?
A. Tom whose maths is worse than reading. B. Lisa whose maths is better than reading.
C. Lily whose reading is better than maths. D. Jack whose reading is as good as maths.
26. According to Sarah Cattan, what do students value much when making further study choices?
A. Their comparative strength instead of absolute ability.
B. Their gender advantages in a specific academic field.
C. Their future job landing possibility in an industry.
D. Their particular interest in a certain subject.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. Why are we drawn to STEM careers?
B. Are boys worse at reading and writing?
C. Why are girls bad at maths-related subjects?
D. Are good readers more likely to give up maths?
C
It's hard for doctors to do a thorough eye exam on small children. But a new smartphone app takes
advantage of parents' fondness for taking pictures of their children to look for signs that a child might be
developing an eye disease.
The app is the result of a father's five-year quest to find a way to catch the earliest signs of eye
diseases, and prevent loss of vision. Five years ago, doctors diagnosed( 诊 断 ) Noah Shaw's
retinoblastoma—a rare type of eye cancer—when he was 4 months old. To make the diagnosis, the
doctors shined a light into Noah's eye, and got a pale reflection from the back of the eyeball, an
indication that there was something wrong there. Noah's father Bryan, a scientist, wondered if he could
see that same pale reflection in pictures of his baby son. Sure enough, he saw the reflection, which
doctors call "white eye", in a picture taken right after Noah was born.
Then Bryan decided to create an app that could scan photos for signs of this reflection. Now, that
app exists, called CRADLE. To test the app, Bryan and his colleagues analyzed more than 50 , 000
pictures taken of 40 children. Half had no eye disease and half had. "On average, the app detected “white
eye” in pictures collected l.3 years before diagnosis," says Bryan.
The app isn't perfect. It sometimes misses " white eye" when it's there, and sometimes says it's there
when it's not. That latter condition is a problem . Even though the so-called false positive occurs less
than l% of the time, that's not good enough. There are about 4 million children born in the U.S. each year.
A l% false positive rate would mean tens of thousands of children showing up at the doctor
unnecessarily.
Still, Bryan is upbeat about the promise of the app. " This is exciting new technology, and this is
how I think we're going to go about screening for a number of diseases in the future," he says.
28. What inspired Bryan to create CRADLE?
A. His son's diagnosis. B. His family photos.
C. His hobby of taking pictures. D. His working experience as a scientist.
29. What do we know about "white eye"?
A. It is a sign of some eye diseases. B. It hardly causes serious loss of vision.
C. It refers to the white part of an eyeball. D. It occurs when no light is reflected from the eye.
30. Why is a l% false positive rate still a problem ?
A. It may delay the treatment of a patient. B. It may badly affect the future of the app.
C. It may raise serious doubts about doctors. D. It may cause a waste of medical resources.
3l. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word "upbeat" in the last paragraph?
A. Curious. B. Cautious. C. Optimistic. D. Worried.
D
Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD)( 孤 独 症 ) is a disability that can cause serious social,
communication and behavioral problems. There is often nothing about how people with ASD look that
makes them different from other people, but people with ASD may communicate, interact, behave, and
learn in ways that are different from most other people. The learning, thinking, and problem-solving
abilities of people with ASD can range from pretty good to extremely bad. Some people with ASD need
a lot of help in their daily lives; others need less.
People with ASD often have problems with social, emotional, and communication skills. They
might repeat certain behaviors and might not want change in their daily activities. Many people with
ASD may also have difficulties learning, paying attention, or reacting to things. Signs of ASD begin
during early childhood and probably last throughout a person's life.
Diagnosing(诊断) ASD can be difficult since there is no medical test, like a blood test, to assess the
disorders. Doctors look at the child's behavior and development to make a judgement. ASD can
sometimes be diagnosed at 18 months or younger. By age 2 , an experienced doctor can be considered
very reliable in diagnosing ASD . However, many children may not see a doctor until much older.
There is currently no cure for ASD . However, research shows that early treatment services can
improve a child's development. Early treatment services help children from birth to 3 years old(36
months) learn important skills. Therefore, it is important to talk to your child's doctor as soon as possible
if you think your child has ASD or other developmental problems.
We do not know all of the causes of ASD . However, most scientists agree that genes are one of the
highest risk factors that can make a person more likely to develop ASD .
If you think your child might have ASD or you think there could be a problem with the way your
child plays, learns, speaks, or acts, contact your child's doctor, and share your concerns. If you're not
sure who to contact, call the Early Childhood Technical Assistance Center( ECTA) at 919-962-2001. Or
visit the ECTA website: https:// ectacenter .org .
32.Which of the following behaviors may NOT belong to the children or adults with ASD?
A. Repeating actions over and over again. B. Having trouble expressing their needs.
C. Avoiding eye contact and want to be alone. D. Being happy to make changes.
33. What can we infer from the article?
A. The earlier an ASD kid is diagnosed, the better it is for his(her) treatment.
B. Doctors simply have no way to diagnose an ASD kid at all.
C. Doctors can diagnose ASD by blood testing.
D. Doctors can diagnose ASD with the help of machines.
34.Who is most likely to be an ASD patient of the following people﹖
A. Someone who prefers to talk a lot in daily life. B. Someone who has got an ASD brother.
C. Someone who wants to hug you in public. D. Someone who sings in a strange voice.
35. Where is this article possibly from﹖
A. A guidebook for new parents. B. Education section of a newspaper.
C. A student's diary. D. A medical magazine.

Stop wasting food is easy to say, but sometimes difficult to put into practice. 36______ Here are
some simple tips that you can easily apply on a daily basis.
First, store your food properly. 37______ After shopping, remember to store your refrigerated food
in such a way that the air circulates well. Once you open the packaging, remember to put the remaining
food in a sealable container or bag that will prevent it from going bad or giving off an unpleasant smell.
Also, organize your fridge intelligently, instead of just placing everything casually.38______
You also need to measure out the amounts well. Don't have eyes bigger than your stomach. When
you're preparing a meal and you know there will be eight of you at the table, relax and don't make it for
ten. Before going on vacation, avoid opening products that you're not sure you can finish. 39______
Even if you go out to dinner with friends, you should still take leftovers home. Perhaps you've got
yourself a free lunch the next day.
40______ Be imaginative, of course! It is quite understandable if you don't want to eat bread that is
not fresh at breakfast. You can turn it into French toast, bread pudding, or other forms. As for fruits that
are a little too ripe for your taste, please don't throw them out; offer them a second chance by turning
them into jams or some desserts.
A. Donate food you're not going to use.
B. It's also vital to transform your leftovers.
C. Why should we buy exactly what you need?
D. How to store foods makes a difference in how long they'll last.
E. In restaurants, ask for a small plate if the quantities seem too large.
F. Finally, clean your refrigerator regularly to prevent the growth of bacteria.
G. How can we manage to avoid throwing food away as much as possible at home?

Last year, Zhang Pingyu paid visit to London. Worried about the time available, Zhang Pingyu had
made a list of the site she wanted to see. It was the Tower which she visited first. Fancy! This solid stone,
square tower had been remained standing for one thousand years. In the past, many new buildings
expanded around it. Therefore, it was still part of a royal palace and prison combined. There followed St
Paul’s Cathedral built after the terrible fire of London in 1666. It looked splendidly when first built.
Westminster Abbey, too, was very interesting. Then just as he came out of the abbey, Pingyu heard the
famous sound of the clock Big Ben ring out the hour.

Last year, Zhang Pingyu paid visit to London. Worried about the time available, Zhang Pingyu
had made a list of the she wanted to see. It was the Tower she visited first. Fancy! This
solid stone, square tower had been remained standing for one thousand years. Many new buildings had
expanded around it. , it was still part of a royal palace and prison combined. There followed St
Paul’s Cathedral built after the terrible fire of London in 1666. It looked when first built.
Westminster Abbey, too, was very interesting. Then just as came out of the abbey, Pingyu heard
the famous sound of the clock Big Ben out the hour.
The next day Pingyu was leaving Windsor Castle. “Perhaps I will see the Queen?” she
wondered as she asleep.

解析: 1.paid∧a.考查冠词.pay a visit to…固定词组,参观…故在 paid 后加 a.
2.site→sites.考查名词.site,可数名词,景点.她参观了好几个景点,所以用复数.故把 site
改为 sites.
3.which→that.考查固定句型.根据分析,词句是强调句,构成是"It is/was +被强调部分+that+
其它".故把 which 改为 that.
4.去掉 been.考查动词.remian,保持,仍然是,系动词,无被动,故把 been 去掉.
5.Therefore→However.考查副词.根据句意,虽然周围很多扩建的建筑,但是它仍然是皇宫和
监狱的一部分,两句是转折关系.故把 Therefore 改为 However.
6.splendidly→splendid.考查形容词.look 为系动词,后面加形容词做表语.故把 splendidly 改
为 splendid.
7.he→she.考查代词.根据上文可知张平玉是女孩,故把 he 改为 she.
8.ring→ringing.考查动词.根据分析,前半句为主句,包含谓语动词 heard,所以 ring 应该用非
谓语动词形式.ring 的逻辑主语为 the clock Big Ben,主动关系,故把 ring 改为 ringing.
9.to→for.考查介词.leave for…固定词组,去…,故把 to 改为 for.
10.fall→fell.考查动词.文章在描述过去发生的事情,时态为一般过去时,故把 fall 改为 fell.

M: What exactly are you looking for?
W: I am looking for a collection of the 19th century European paintings. M: Is it the book on your left,
the one with the yellow cover? (3)
W: Let me see. Yeah, this is what I want. Thanks a lot.
Text 4
W: Well, your computer is broken. It won‟t turn on. How did you break it?
M: I don‟t know. I dropped it two weeks ago, but it was working well until yesterday. It‟s seven
years old, though. I think it was almost time to get a new one, anyway. (4) Text 5
W: My father is a man who knows what’s important in life — he has a demanding job, but
he still makes time for his children. (5)
M: That‟s really special. Most people with important jobs aren‟t able to do that.

W: Wow, I had no idea you were such a good artist! When did you learn to paint?
M: I started studying one year ago. But I’ve been drawing since I was five years old. (6) I‟ve also been
taking pictures for six years, when my dad gave me my first camera for my birthday. I think photography
has really helped me with my painting.

in summer. It’s a wet country, so there’s snow almost everywhere in winter. (9)

M: Hey, I‟m calling to say that I‟m running late to the airport. Can you make sure that the plane doesn‟t
take off without me?
W: I‟ll try.
M: Thank you. I’m just sitting here in traffic. (10) There must be an accident or something. I‟ve been
here for 30 minutes, and I‟ve barely made it onto the bridge.
W: Oh, that‟s not good.
M: This traffic is really stressing me out. (12) I don‟t want to have to take a later flight! W: I‟m sure
you‟ll be able to make it. The plane doesn’t leave for another 2 hours. (11)
M: Yes, but Google Maps is telling me that I won‟t be at the airport for another hour and 45 minutes,
which means I‟ll only have 15 minutes to check my bags, get through security, and arrive at the gate.
That‟s impossible!
W: You can ask to skip to the head of the line in security. They‟re usually pretty good about that
when you think you might miss your flight. M: I hope so.

York in two months.
W: That‟s great! I thought you liked your old job. Why did you get a new job?
M: I liked my co-workers, but working in a hospital was a very stressful job. (13) (14) I had to work
long hours and I am scared of blood! Plus, I had to drive almost an hour to the hospital every morning.
(14)
W: Will you make more money working at the bank?
M: No, I will make a little less. But if I work hard, I will get promoted.
W: I thought you were going to look for a new job in California, where your family live. (15) We miss
you, and you never have enough time to visit us. Why can‟t you work at a bank in California?
M: I am going to work at this bank for a year. Then I will try to transfer to a branch in California near
you and dad! (16) I really want to move back to California, but I can‟t just pick up and leave. Working
at this bank will give me some good experience.

Here, we have Washington Square Park, which is one of the most famous New York City public
parks. It has played a central role in every major cultural movement in New York City for the last 100
years. As you can see, it is located between 6th St. and 4th St. in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of
Lower Manhattan. (17) The park covers eight city blocks, or just under ten acres. Surrounding the park
on all sides is New York University; those brick buildings covered in dark green plants have been
around since 1871, when the park first opened. Many of those buildings used to serve as homes and
studios for artists, and the benches in the park are popular places for painters, poets, dancers, and singers
to get together. The park‟s fountain area has long been one of the city‟s most popular spots for residents
and tourists, and children love to skate and play games around the fountain. (19) There are two special
areas for dogs to run around, (18) and during the hot summer months, many food and drink stands are set
up inside the park. One of Washington Square Park’s most recognizable features is the Washington Arch,
which was built in 1889. (20) It was modeled after the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, which was built in
1806.
